Synopsis

Paste paper designs have been used for centuries to decorate book covers and endpapers. The basic paste paper technique involves dampening a sheet of paper, coating it with coloured paste, and then drawing various implements through the paste to create deceptively sophisticated designs. In this volume, a paper artist demonstrates, step by step, how to create patterned papers, from preparing the papers and applying the paste to producing combed, textured, stamped, and even hand-drawn designs. There are instructions on using paste papers to make scrapbooks, greeting cards, picture mats, boxes and other projects. There is also a look at the work of an international roster of paste paper designers.
